Conclusions • A lot of different systems already in place in different countries • Most of them are not electronic systems within the definition • Need for a kind of standard, in stead of bilateral agreements
Elements of standard • Language: XML • Format: ISPM 12 leading, XML scheme UN/CEFACT • Standardized items (ISO codes, botanical names, quantities) • Security • Authenicity
Proceed after workshop 2009 • Two WG were set up • Check the XML scheme • Business requirements • Inventory was made • But no further progress • Similar experience after workshop in NL 2006 • Discussions in CPM5, progress needed
Pilots • Pilots are going on all over the world or will start • The Netherlands started pilot with Kenya • End of this year electronic certificates with roses • Experience is input for discussions • Pilots may diverge now already
TC to discuss how we can make progress • Progress before CPM6
